Reaching every student with Universal Design for Learning
Festival of Inclusive Education: On Demand
Session details & slides
- About the session
Before we can expect students to engage and excel in learning, they first need to be able to access the learning material. One way to ensure this is to bake accessibility into our teaching practices and materials. In this session, discover Universal Design for Learning, or UDL. Loren will explore the core components of UDL and how you can put these into practice to foster inclusive practices and equity for all.
